CrossOver Support - Community Forums

Dear Community,

I tried to install and run Genshin Impact on the latest Crossover 22.1 .
Hm,. there are still problems especially with the mentioned QTWebEngineProcess.exe . As far as I googled it is something for embedded webapplications and comes with other apps like Origin or EA, well, in this case probably with the game.
In the end the Wine64Preloader stops working and thats it.

Does anyone have solved this issue so far?

It seem I can't upload any file here so, but I can provide the detailed Error report if need.

Hi Markus,

Genshin Impact won't work even if we get past the QTWebEngineProcess.exe error, since the game uses anti-cheat. A few users have gotten the game to launch, but eventually they do get booted due to anti-cheat.

Best,
Meredith

CEF & QtWebEngine require HACKS within kernalbase/process.c that help make them functional.

The larger problem is “ Genshin Impact” uses anti-cheat software that won’t work under CrossOver.

Looks like you’d gotten to this while I had no service.

Even if they’d circumvented the anti-cheat entirely the game requires a geometry shader.

Thanks to all.
I thought that will be an easy task 😀.
So, now that I got all the background information, I will give up on get that game to run.
Many thanks for the Details.

You can just ignore this error because it doesn't break the launcher.

If you want to play Genshin using CrossOver, you need to apply some third-party patches (which may get you banned). As the author (Krock) requested, I cannot share the patch publicly. I can only tell you that the game is buggy with the patch. Due to a lack of transform feedback extension and geometry pipeline, many characters and all chests will not render.

Game launches with patch:

Bypass transform feedback and character renders, but still buggy:

I'm using MacBook Air (M1 16GB RAM), with CrossOver 22.1 + built-in dxvk.

[EDIT]
Performance:
At 2880x1800 HiDPI resolution, I got 25fps in Mondstadt and 16fps in Sumeru.

Good morning, I am interested in some workaround, because I have this same issu while launching Battlefront 2 (2017) from steam : it fails with this specific error while trying to install EA app (steam and origin already installed and up to date). Any help appreciated ?

I am running CX 22.1 on a M2 Mac mini (8 Go).
